Plenty of action this morning before I had to leave the patch and head in to work. A juvenile
Moorhen was on West Pool along with a single Coot and Black-headed Gull numbers have crept up a bit over the last few days, with seven birds present this morning.
From the Fishing Lodge I witnessed a Kingfisher harassing a Common Sandpiper, with a second Common Sandpiper also noted. A total of five Little Egrets were present today and the adult Great Black-backed Gull was also still around. Yesterday's Mandarin family were again seen but the highlight of a good thirty minutes at the reservoir was the second Redshank of the year, this bird was rather more flighty than the individual that was on the northern causeway ten days ago.
